This happens every bank holiday (and reliability is awful on Sundays too)
You'd think they'd learn to react to demand

Pulling these over from the 'Annoying' thread.
I would agree, to a point, that Bank Holidays, or at least Good Friday, should have a better service than Sunday service levels. However, I wouldn't go as far as calling for a normal Monday or Friday level of service after the Bank Holiday after Christmas last year proved it didn't justify even a Saturday service.
However, I do think the major routes could do with a special timetable running to normal weekday timings until evening drop-off time. I would like to point out that this is my opinion on the matter - but I do feel some routes may need their normal weekday service levels just to give a Sunday level of service especially after today.
